Normally theres a few ads and people talking to each other about where their going for a firework display.

Not heard anyone talk about them this year.

Heard quite a few fireworks over the past couple of weeks.

There's been none going off since Sunday here.

Halloween is bigger than fireworks night now sadly, plus Diwali is coming up soon as well

Guy Fawkes Night is pretty huge here, I'm all excited for Friday night, we have been given the night off work because they are having a fireworks display and bonfire plus there will be a fairground, stalls etc, love it :flutter:

There is an organised display by us that is really good we always go there, My two were never fussed for our own, good job as we could never afford them :laugh:
My daughters birthday is the 10th so if they had a box of 'no bangs' reduced after bonfire night I'd get them for her party.

as a kid this was 2nd to Chrimbo

My uncle would come round with a big box of fireworks and we would put bangers in bottles and all sorts. I loved the next day going round the streets looking at gardens with spent fireworks in

For me Guy Fawkes was massive


Not for my small LTS now tho

Really, why? We have a few local ones that go on every year, stopped going when the kids lost interest, I find firework a bit boring tbh

I had fireworks at my Halloween party on Saturday. Two of my local villages have displays next Friday and Saturday so I'll probably go to one of those too.

We can't have a bonfire fair on a Thursday night, kids have school and people have work the next day.

all the poor hedgehogs who will be burned alive in bonfires as people dont check to see if any are in before lighting

couldn't they put a little hedgehog size sign infront of the kindling to warn them? although the PC brigade would probably say that is racist if you said no hedgehogs allowed. ugh, PC gone mad these days.

Yes, it's really such a same LT that the old traditions are dying out. A real shame.
